The conversion of a former farmhouse into a modern Veterinary Practice breathed new life into this established Borders practice who had outgrown their existing premises in the conservation village of St Boswells.

A sensitive extension at the rear formed a modern and well lit reception and waiting area, while the rooms within the existing building became new consulting rooms for small animals. A large animal unit was constructed in the rear courtyard, with trot up areas and new parking formed at the front.

Key issues in the design were providing for a logical work flow within the existing building layout, and maximising the use of natural light.
